Psychotherapy

  • Developing Cultural Proficiency in Clinical Practice
    This paper suggests that in an increasingly multicultural world, cultural competence requires that racism, power, oppression, and privilege be fully acknowledged and addressed to maximize the effectiveness of clinical interventions. Psychotherapists must learn to appropriately address racial or cultural differences in the therapy room.
  • Does Culture Matter?
    Objects to current preoccupations with culture (particularly race) in psychology and education, suggesting that it is unethical to let culture influence decision making. Notes the paucity of empirical evidence of statistical interactions between treatment and culture in psychotherapy or teaching and culture in education.
